NASA reveals why it WON’T speak about UFOs and conspiracies3 min read

The US Space Agency is regularly accused by so-called UFO investigators of covering up evidence that aliens have visited Earth and other planets like Mars because it refuses to discuss or even acknowledge the “discoveries” on images of the galaxy.

Thanks to the array of information, video and data released online by NASA, alien investigators are able to spend hours trawling through reams of archive images from the 1969 moon landings through to the latest pictures beamed back from Mars and dwarf planets Pluto and Ceres.

There are so many people doing it there are now almost daily claims of UFOs being seen on the ISS live camera or an array of different things being found in close-up images of the surface of Mars, including giant mice, bears, crabs, and even aliens and their homes, or the ruins of alleged ancient Martian civilisations.

NASA has dismissed much of the Mars “findings” as pareidolia – a visual phenomena that means the brain tricks the eyes into seeing familiar objects and shapes in patterns or tecturs like the surface of a planet.

However, it has been loath to say specific anything about the large number of alleged UFO sightings from the ISS or in Moon and other celestial body photographs.

Scott C Waring, editor of the UFO Sightsings Daily website claims it is all part of a major cover up to hide the truth from the masses and that it even quickly shuts down the ISS camera when a UFO comes in range.

But NASA astronaut Drew Feustel said the agency simply does not have time to “pay much attention to the media” about such issues.

He said: “You can’t stop people from making up stories where there aren’t any.

“If you want to believe the moon landing is a hoax, ok, but it is much better to believe reality.”

He revealed the stance to Alejandro Rojas, editor of Open Minds magazine, which covers the UFO phenomena.

Mr Rojas also found out the NASA position from an unnamed source.

If you want to believe the moon landing is a hoax, ok, but it is much better to believe reality.
